Even if it was hard, just copy the code and execute it

Just put it in codeblocks and compile.....

They even added the header files...

Bunch of idiots!

@Gregozor2121 seriously have you guys never learned to code on paper? You shouldn't need a compiler to solve this... Copying this code takes longer than looking at it for a min to solve it. It's not that hard

@david-hil but you can't exactly copy paste.. or OCR? Hmmm

This is c with an inline declaration of a variable in a for loop

for(int i...)

This isn't valid c

Anyone with basic programming skills could solve this even without being competent in C at all. If this gets you an interview about a C position, it's kind of silly.

@Akatana Shame on me, I mistook one logical operation for another 😅

@Akatana
I know how to solve it...
It is just that any idiot can just paste it in codeblocks (or even android c++ compiler and get the code!)

You really dont need a Compiler for this one. After looking at it for a sec u should know whats going on.

@AlgoRythm it is no valid ISO C89 but nobody said anything about the standard (actually the poster didn't even specify the language, except from the file being named main.c). It's totally fine for C99 upwards.

@JustKidding Standards and compilers give me headaches

Recruiters in germany try to pick your interest with coding “challenges”. I like the idea but this is actually no challenge at all! 😃
